Overlooked for 75 years, WWII veteran, 100, finally gets service medals Morristown Daily Record It took 75 years for the U.S. Navy to produce three service medals earned by Walter Ness for operating a wood-hull minesweeper in the Pacific Theater during World War II. On Wednesday, the brassware finally caught up with the Harding resident, about two months after his 100th birthday. They were presented by Brig. Gen. Vincent Malone, commander of Picatinny Arsenal, during the first 2021 meeting of Morris Plains VFW Post 3401.
